Zusammenfassung:MEP (Maps for Easy Paths) is a project for the enrichment of geographical maps with information about accessibility of urban pedestrian pathways, targeted at people with mobility problems. In this paper, we describe the tools developed to collect data along the paths travelled by target people and the algorithms for a good quality reconstruction of the path developed to overcome the intrinsic limitation of the sensors available on mobile devices. Experimental results show the feasibility of the approach.
